The Fern Garden is in the heart of Blarney, there are 80 varieties. Some of them were even planted by Yves Rocher, the owned of the famous cosmetics brand of same name. There you have the highest fern in Ireland with more than 5 meters (204 inches).

The Ice House is close to the Fern Garden, it was recently discovered. It was under a dense layer of spines and poisonous plants. It is a structure of circular rock and thick walls. It was probably used in the Victorian age as a primitive "refrigerator".LAKESe você fizer uma caminhada de uns 15 minutos vai chegar até o lago que vemos abaixo.
